Even if no vulnerability has been found on your system, it is recommended you perform this scan periodically, as new potential flaws are found daily.

Fix vulnerabilities by following recommendations If you discover that Bitdefender Home Scanner assesses a network device as vulnerable, it is important to follow basic security rules, as suggested by the application. Among the recommendations, you can find changing passwords with stronger ones, install the latest software or firmware updates, and strengthen authentication methods.
